What We Do
Media Training
Surrey House Corporate Communication has a long and proud record of specialising in media training, reputation and crisis management. We:
- have coached key spokespeople who work for some of the largest and most potentially ‘exposed’ public and private organisations
- focus not only on imparting the necessary skills but also on the content, suitability and presentation of the message
- our advice, methods and insights are underpinned by an unrivalled breadth and depth of knowledge obtained from working for the UK’s top broadcast and print organisations
- our approach is especially relevant when clients are under pressure and particularly benefits organisations undergoing ‘trial by media’.
Our media trainers have worked at senior levels in Fleet Street and at both the BBC and ITV. They have many years experience training delegates at all levels, including Boards. The ethos is one of encouragement. We do not humiliate trainees. Feedback forms consistently show the overwhelming majority of delegates rank the training as ‘excellent’. Clients who have a continuing need still use us after many years of support.
In addition, we have partnered on complex training programmes for major public or private sector clients for many years with OCTO, one of Europe’s foremost authorities on the leadership and management of crisis and emergency situations. We provide the media training aspect of their brief and the journalistic input for table-top and real time exercises to test internal teams. We also help with scenario planning.
